Woke up way ealy at 3:30am after being in Logan all night and getting home at 11:00pm!  I was pissed because there was no reason to be there that early!  And then we waited for 1.5 hours for buses that never came to get us.  Finally Greg and I hitched a ride with Mike Powell and his wife and drove up.  Got warmed up for a mile before. 

Greg and I ran together for the first 9.5 miles.  We were in 11 and 12 at one point but kept moving up on people.   I felt ok, but didn't take anything but a little water because of stomach issues.  Greg took off to catch 3 and 4 at 9.5 and my fitness wasn't good enough to go with him.  He pulled about 30 seconds ahead and I kept my pace.  I caught 4 which was then 5 but couldn't gain on the other guy.  Ended up 5th place and 1st in the age, Greg was 3rd.  Happy with it though.  

Cooled down a mile with Greg after.  Legs are completely shot!  

Need a nap and a long weekend now!

Jenny Petersen was there and ran awesome!  Place place and under 1:21:00!
